Patent EP-1150176-A1 (EP)
Inventor: KOTANI MASAKI
IPC: H04N1/23
Filed: 2001-04-19
Abstract: An image forming machine (1) that can select a most appropriate recording
sheet. The image forming machine (1) may be a facsimile machine having a
photocopy function. The facsimile machine has a 100% magnification preferred
mode and a one-page- printing preferred mode. In the latter mode, an image may
be reduced for printing, or two images may be combined and printed on a single
sheet of paper. RAM (30) stores a plurality of print types in a predetermined order
for each of these modes (PT1,PT2). The facsimile machine (1) has a plurality of
paper cassettes (51,52,53) to store recording sheets. A controller (10) selects one
of the paper cassettes which best suits for the printing under a predetermined
criterion, and causes a printer (50) to print the image on one or more recording
sheets supplied from the selected paper cassette.

IPC: G06Q30/06
Filed: 2001-11-06
Abstract: A method and a system to help users of image forming equipment make
informed decision on when to order supplies therefor and from which supplier. The
equipment at the user (100) side automatically sends status information to a service center (102)
that keeps a database (142) of independent suppliers. The service center (102) analyzes the
automatically transmitted information from the user side and when it detects a need for
supplies (e.g. toner) for specific equipment of a specific user, it analyzes a database of
independent potential suppliers to generate a list of suppliers matching the particular
detected need. The service center (102) sends the list and information about the suppliers
and supplies on the list to the user side, from which the supplies are ordered from one
or more suppliers and delivered thereby to the user side (100).

Abstract: An image forming apparatus of the present invention
is operable in a duplex print mode for printing images on
both sides of a recording medium. A toner image is
transferred from a first image carrier (1) to a second image
carrier (10) and then transferred from the second image carrier
to one side of the recording medium. Subsequently, a toner
image is transferred from the first image carrier to the
other side of the recording medium. After the toner image
has been transferred from the first image carrier to the
second image carrier, the second image carrier is moved
in the reverse direction to a preselected position. The
apparatus of the present invention enhances productivity
in the duplex print mode.
Furthermore, the polarity of the charge of the image carried on said
second image carrier (10) is inverted. The second image carrier (10) is
a belt with a mechanism to prevent offset.

Abstract: A proximity detector for use in a mobile telephone having at least a microphone and a loudspeaker operatively connected to a signal processor is presented. The proximity detector includes data processing and control modules having a module for controlling the signal processor for activating the loudspeaker to reproduce an acoustic control signal. A correlator correlates a control signal received directly by the microphone and a control signal being reflected from a user of the telephone and then received by the microphone to determine the distance between the telephone and the user. A signal level controller controls the signal processor to vary the signal level of an audible signal reproduced by the loudspeaker depending on the determined distance between the telephone and the user.

Abstract: This invention relates to a light source (10) for
producing a binary light signal of constant average power.
The light source (10) includes a laser (12) and a current
supply for supplying a current to the laser (12). The
current has a slowly varying bias component (33) and a
modulation component (35), each of which are independently
controlled by the current supply so as to keep the average
output power of the laser (12) constant when the
temperature of the laser (12) changes during use. The
current is controlled so as to keep the bias current just
above the threshold current, the threshold current being
inferred from previously obtained data values. An optical
sensor is provided to monitor the average optical power
output of the laser (12), and the modulation current is
controlled by a feedback loop so as to keep the average
optical output power constant.

Abstract: The procedure for recording data on a thermal transfer tape comprising a backing layer (2) coated with a wax or resin film (3) and pigments (4), consists of projecting a thermal energy beam (5) modulated by the data onto the tape to modify its spatial state according to the distribution of energy. The thermal energy from an initial source is modulated with the aid of a spatial modulator and is absorbed by the tape in the heated zones, raising the temperature of the wax or resin film to its melting point on the surface or totally, allowing the pigments to migrate inside the tape as a function of the film temperature. The film (3) can include a chemical element which passes from solid to vapor phases as a function of the film temperature, or a supplementary material able to amalgamate with a mixture of pigments and the molten film material.

Abstract: Method for obtaining a transmission gain function by means of an array of
antennae and a weighting of the signals received or to be transmitted by vectors (   b   )
of N complex coefficients, referred to as weighting vectors, N being the number of
antennae in the array, the array transmitting, to a telecommunication terminal on a
transmission channel, referred to as the downlink channel, a downlink transmission
signal (S d ) and the said terminal transmitting to the said array on a transmission
channel, referred to as the uplink channel, an uplink transmission signal (S u ), the said
uplink channel being disturbed by a first isotropic noise (N) and/or a first directional
noise, referred to as the uplink interference (I u ), the said downlink channel being
disturbed by a second isotropic noise (N') and/or a second directional noise, referred
to as the downlink interference (I d ). A first weighting vector (   b   u   ) having been
determined in order to maximise, on reception by the array, the ratio (( C / I + N )   u   ) of
the received signal coming from the said terminal to the noise plus interference
disturbing the uplink channel, a second weighting vector (   b   d   ) maximising, on
reception by the terminal, the ratio (( C / I + N )   d   ) of the received signal coming from
the network to the noise plus interference disturbing the downlink channel is
calculated from the said first weighting vector in the form of a matrix product
comprising a first noise matrix (D u ) which is a function of the power of the first
isotropic noise and/or the power of the first directional noise and a second noise
matrix (D d ) which is a function of the power of the second isotropic noise and/or the
power of the second directional noise.

Abstract: The system is based on a change in the intensity of evaporation caused
by a chimney effect, modifying the flow of air that circulates through the
environment apparatus in the surrounding area of the fuse. It consists of using a
base unit (1) with slots (6) for the passage of air in its upper part. This is done in
such a manner that said base unit (1) can be used in isolation, thus attaining an
apparatus that does not regulate the evaporation intensity, but that has a
complementary part (7) joined to the upper part of said base unit (1). This
assembly, enabling free turning, has complementary slots (9), that determine a
greater or lesser flow of air and the consequent regulation of the intensity of the
evaporation, depending on the greater or lesser degree of opposition they have
to the slots (6).
